India and Nepal 2022
Tonight the French Instiute is putting on a music night with rock bands, a circus act and a techno set. When I arrive home from work, I fall asleep and when I awake, I have to motivate myself to get changed and take the half hour journey into town to this event. I'm really glad I did!
The event attracts a lot of foreigners/expats in their 20s to 40s and so I get into my 'young at heart' frame of mind. The entrance gates are protected by guards with rifles and there is further screening inside and then it is a carefree and fun series of events in the outdoors.
A touring circus troupe is here to showcase its work which is really fun with an eclectic mix of poodles, acrobats, trombones, unicycles and balloon swallowing! The live music bands are good too (although a bit loud for me...haha must be my age!)
i bump into Ellen and meet her two MSF colleagues - they really do great work all over the world. We dance along to the Dj (probably an old fashioned term, but you know what I mean!) playing the techno music and I feel close to and tell Ellen about Alex, who excels in this role.
At 12.30 in the morning, it is time to leave and make my way north again to an absolutely silent neighbourhood where I live. My first late night out and a good one.
